Nicol Bolas, Planeswalker Price
MARKET NOTE: NICOL BOLAS, PLANESWALKER
Updated 2026-09-30
Nicol Bolas, Planeswalker from Magic 2013 is the iconic elder dragon in his planeswalker form, one of the most narratively significant cards in the entire Magic story. The M13 printing placed this card in front of a mainstream audience, and the art and flavor text remain definitive for the character. Price movement has been flat across all tracked windows, reflecting a card held mostly by fans and narrative collectors rather than competitive demand. Nicol Bolas sees Commander play in high-power dragon builds, but the seven-mana casting cost and three-color identity restrict it to dedicated builds rather than broad adoption. The real market here is story collectors who want every Bolas printing and Mythic rare hunters filling binders. Supply from M13 is reasonable but not unlimited. This is an evergreen collector name that tracks the health of villain-themed and story-driven Commander demand more than it tracks any tournament meta.
